Lyrics Translation

Dread shine your light
So a child may follow
Many have been lost along the way
Until tonight
Turns into tomorrow
Teach them to be careful while at play

There's nothing wrong with having fun
Don't let the system tame you
It's just a part of being young
And even though they're quick to blame you
Picking on you like a plum
Because your dream became true
Now look what they've become
An open sight in plain view
They've already had a run
So meanwhile they try to change you
It's not over til it's done
So please remain the same you

Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world
The world is yours

Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world
The world is yours

Dread shine your light
So a child may follow
Many have been lost along the way
Until tonight
Turns into tomorrow
Teach them to be careful while at play

You might not think you know enough
Don't let that deter you
It's all apart of growing up
And we're all young enough to learn to
And don't you live life in a rush
The past cannot be returned to
And when you feel like giving up
Remember patience is a virtue
When you fall, try to get up
Have some guts, I'm trying to urge you
Be proud of owning up
The truth will never hurt you

Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world
The world is yours

Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world
The world is yours

Dread shine your light
So a child may follow
Cause' many have been lost along the way
Until tonight
Turns into tomorrow
Teach them to be careful while at play
So when you're rising start, be wise and smart
Try and make your mark
Don't you hype and floss, and drive too fast
Cause' life's to short
Try to make good times last 'cause time flies past
And if time is money, that means I'm cast
But it don't cost money to joke and laugh
So if you love somebody, hurry up and talk

Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world (hey young world)
Hey young world
The world is yours

Dread shine your light
Dread ilumine seu caminho
So a child may follow
Para que uma criança possa seguir
Many have been lost along the way
Muitos se perderam ao longo do caminho
Until tonight
Até esta noite
Turns into tomorrow
Se transformar em amanhã
Teach them to be careful while at play
Ensine-os a ter cuidado enquanto brincam
There's nothing wrong with having fun
Não há nada de errado em se divertir
Don't let the system tame you
Não deixe o sistema te domar
It's just a part of being young
É apenas uma parte de ser jovem
And even though they're quick to blame you
E mesmo que eles sejam rápidos em te culpar
Picking on you like a plum
Escolhendo você como uma ameixa
Because your dream became true
Porque seu sonho se tornou realidade
Now look what they've become
Veja o que eles se tornaram
An open sight in plain view
Uma visão aberta à vista de todos
They've already had a run
Eles já tiveram uma chance
So meanwhile they try to change you
Então enquanto isso eles tentam te mudar
It's not over til it's done
Não acaba até estar terminado
So please remain the same you
Então, por favor, continue sendo você

Don't you hype and floss, and drive too fast
Não se exiba e dirija rápido demais
Cause' life's to short
Porque a vida é curta
Try to make good times last 'cause time flies past
Tente fazer os bons momentos durarem, porque o tempo voa
And if time is money, that means I'm cast
E se tempo é dinheiro, isso significa que estou fora
But it don't cost money to joke and laugh
Mas não custa dinheiro para brincar e rir
So if you love somebody, hurry up and talk
Então, se você ama alguém, apresse-se e fale
